Please Read This...

As
nature anticipates intelligence, so liberalism anticipates tyranny. We
can sense of natural order its necessary evolution in complexity, while
of the other, its inevitable decline into corruption. The one gathers
wisdom into its folds; the other spends its worth in promises and
excuses, social theory and stratagems of power. The one keeps variety in
all its forms, encouraging an infinite success; the other lays down its
template, bending the world into enormities that fail and fall.

"The
best lack all conviction," wrote W.B. Yeats in his poem "The Second
Coming" as he and his generation were disturbed by the threat of
socialism in Europe at the end of the First World War, "while the worst
are full of passionate intensity." It is the concern of all enlightened
societies when armies of unreason invade and occupy the centers of
culture and government. The worst find identity and purpose in a shame
culture environment, in tribal myths, in organized lawlessness and shows
of violence. In our moment, the best, who believe wholeheartedly in
America's goodness and who recognize in the nation's founding documents
the summit of human intellectual achievement, are distracted by the
viciousness of liberal opinion and passion hurled against them. Caught
up in the vortex of leftist activism, and unaccustomed to its disgrace
and violence, the best are too often weakened in spirit and made fearful
of offending the worst.

The
worst will level this world with a debased creed of centralized power
and the self-righteous arrogance that attends it; and the best must
answer in terms the worst will understand. The hour comes round for
America, for her citizens, like the children of Old Europe, are now
thrown into stasis and soul-annihilating contests of principle and
ideology.

Where
would progressives be without their consuming, systematized ignorance,
their ideological prejudices and hatred? Their poisons inform the
uninformed. History is irrelevant; ignorance is necessary, turning the
worst elements of human nature into a hideous political strength.
Government at all times must act as a stay against human nature.
Governments may change, but the purpose of government cannot change. The
modern left’s desire for universal participation in their contempt for
long-established democratic values and institutions suggests a level of
derangement undiscovered in American politics -- but there is no level
of derangement unacceptable to the left.

We
have not yet seen the worst of the worst. We can anticipate the end of
democratic institutions should progressives ever acquire the statist
powers they have pursued since the Wilson presidency, for the liberal
caste, outraged by Trump's victory, are no longer willing to leave their
fate to the electoral whims of the people. Their handbooks tell us that
any means of acquiring power is legitimate if it succeeds. Their
determined pursuit of power, their need to control the thought and
behavior of targeted populations, and their persistent urge to bring
harm to those who disagree combine in force as a statement about the
terms of social justice they wish to impose upon the American people.

Americans
and Europeans are straightforwardly reluctant to accept the dishonesty
and the insults of progressive leadership but passive enough to follow
its instructions even into the regions of hell. Under the fixed
templates of ideological instruction, collapse is the foreseeable
product of social justice engineering. The recognition of Sharia and
foreign laws by leftist interests, their bureaucratic entrenchment, and
their aggressive promotion of uncontrollable immigration from failing
states threaten the entire foundation of Western law and culture. Their
socialist delusions survive in the expectation of multiculturalism, in
the establishment of a new world order of governing elites, in the
promise of a massive redistribution of unearned wealth, and in creating
difficulties that are insoluble by democratic institutions. All this, so
that in the end, the great majority of people, silenced by political
correctness and arbitrary liberal authority, and frustrated by their
inability to correct them, will learn to tolerate, then to accept, and
finally to embrace the depravities which they first so earnestly sought
to avoid.

Democratic
institutions are inherently conservative, sustained by public trust in
their moral legitimacy and distinguished by principles of
self-governance.

Conservatism is a direct expression of the democratic
process. Included in its tenets is a reverence for the equality of all
persons under law, for their fundamental rights, and for their freedom
from the coercive powers of the state. Liberalism, in its modern
interpretation, divides the nation, rending the entire fabric of
society, culture, and government, and at every opportunity seeks, for
political reasons, to diminish the value of the citizen.

Those
among the left who speak so highly of democracy are attracted only to
the despotic powers that accrue to the majority. Consider that 51
percent of the vote equals 100 percent of the power in a strictly
popular electoral process and you will understand why liberals are
attempting, before the 2020 census, to divide the American people into
reliable constituencies -- organized under the fraud of social justice
programming -- that would in time establish a permanent majority in
government under the "benevolent" control of leftist interests.

But
to trust the First Amendment to the benevolence of liberals in
government is to trust one’s wealth and property to the discretion of
thieves. Leftists value diversity of opinion as long as you agree with
them; but those who agree with the left’s distorted ideology render
themselves stupid and incoherent in its defense. As a nation, we must
respond effectively to those extremists on the left who recruit from
populations made ignorant from propaganda, who incite and direct racial
enmity for political reasons, who practice intolerance of free speech,
and who promote a hostile and retaliatory environment throughout the
culture -- even at the centers of education.

Knowledge
is resistance: to the prejudices of ideology, to the dishonesty of
liberal media, to political correctness, and to the despotic will of
left-wing activism. We cannot fail to remember that liberalism is a
myth, a modern intellectual invention, taking its instruction from
social theorists of the 19th and 20th centuries. It owes nothing to the
nation’s founding principles of government. Its doctrine is that of a
statist command and control system free of constitutional restraints;
and its votaries seek to acquire and hold power through propaganda,
intimidation, and force, methods typical of a totalitarian structure.

The
ignorant are never free. They are the plantation dwellers and slaves of
ideology. The propagandists, the demagogues, and the race-baiters are
above them -- teachers of the ignorant -- and they are the masters and
whip-holders of the new liberal shame culture. The ignorant will always
find someone to tell them what to believe and who to hate, and they will
always find tribes and prophets prepared to receive them. Those who
have found comfort in the left’s egalitarian dystopia have little
appreciation for the quality of rights and freedoms that America
guarantees to all persons standing on her soil, and they are quick to
shake off the personal responsibilities that freedom requires of them.
They have fallen into the trap of political identity that rewards total
conformity of thought and behavior while punishing dissent, for they and
their masters have tortured the soul of conscience and made of reason a
medicine that cannot heal. The willfully ignorant -- those who have
chosen ignorance -- represent the worst of America’s possibilities, for
they are victims of a dangerous and misinforming ideology --
indoctrinated, radicalized, intolerant of opposition, and full of
passionate intensity -- slouching towards Washington, like the "rough
beast" of Yeats' terrible vision, to be born.
